How does it feel to be loved?
Is it a mere feeling or something more divine
does it even exist in the real world
maybe I wish I had 'that' someone I could call mine.

How does it feel to be desired?
Is it lust or something beyond obsession
can that thirst even be satiated
maybe I just crave that kind of touch.

How does it feel to belong?
is it what people call home
can someone truly find 'the one'
maybe I just want to escape this raging storm.

How can I deny these feelings surfing up
never knew I would wish these upon
never felt this empty, this null
maybe I hope I soon find my own dusk til' dawn.

I think we all crave the closeness that loving offers us, the bonging to someone or something greater than ourselves. You've started this desire well and I hope you find what you seek. Sometimes it isn't a person we are looking for. We each have a God shaped hole in our hearts That only He can fill. However you understand that idea, I pray you find what u seek! Xoxo
